He holds the whole world . . .

By Elvira

Mr. Cat:
You hold the universe in your
eyes — knowing emanates
from the orbs.
You sense the sorrow or the world
and offer your belly
to be the cure:
Better than bloodletting!

With your purr —
you brought smiles
to the elderly – those forgotten
even by their kin.
And, so to honor you —
an inner portrait
I did draw —
though only pens of
mind were used —
the expression is
One of love.
